The Eyjafjallajökull volcano in Iceland erupted on 14 April 2010. During the following days, volcanic ash was carried towards the Netherlands on the wind. The Office for Risk Assessment and Research (BuRO) of the Dutch Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority has investigated the potential consequences of the deposition of volcanic ash on agricultural crops (including produce grown for personal consumption) that are consumed by humans and animals. For its analysis, BuRO used data provided by the National Air Quality Monitoring Network of the National Institute for Public Health and the Environment (RIVM), a statement by the European Food Safety Authority and a report by the RIVM-RIKILT Front Office for Food Safety. The report by RIVM-RIKILT is included. ; NL; nl; vwaefsafocalpoint@vwa.nl
